  • The Early History of Ilkley Quaker Meeting
    THE EARLY HISTORY OF ILKLEY QUAKER MEETING A talk given at Ilkley Meeting, 26 June 2016 Quakerism in this part of Wharfedale in the early days centred on Askwith and Farfield. There was a Quaker burial ground at Askwith from c. 1660 and a meeting house there from 1665 – first wooden, then rebuilt in stone in 1705. But Askwith Meeting closed in 1778, because of falling membership and financial difficulties, and it merged with Otley, which had had its own meeting house at Cross Green from 1776. This merged meeting then merged in turn with Rawdon in 1792, and Otley meeting house closed, it seems, in 1822. Further up the dale there was a meeting at Farfield because the owner of Farfield Hall, Anthony Myers, who had become a convinced Quaker in the early 1650s, gave part of his land for a burial ground in 1666 – and in 1689 he gave the land on which Farfield meeting house was built. Farfield meeting house ceased to be used by Friends in 1816, because of declining numbers in that area. The meeting transferred to Addingham, where Quakers rented a room. One anecdotal piece of evidence for this comes from the journals of the Quaker Joseph Wood, from near High Flatts, who recorded in 1817 when he visited Addingham: ‘Farfield Meeting hath been for some time past held in this village for the greater convenience of Friends in a room which they have taken and fitted up for the purpose.’ (He had earlier recorded attending a Quaker burial at Askwith in February 1780, where he was able to warm himself at a fire in the meeting house, which must have been reopened for the occasion.) Moving forward now to the mid-nineteenth century, Ilkley was developing rapidly following the building of various hydropathic establishments from the 1840s onwards.

  • Burley in Wharfedale Information
    2/16/13 Travel & Tourism Burley in Wharfedale information HOME Information Community Parish Council History Gallery Village Diary Contact Us Links iBurley Businesses Forum Ramble 6 Burley to Stead Hall Farm Distance: 4½ km (2¾ miles) Time: 1 hour (adult pace with no stops) Maps The accompanying sketch map gives a general indication of the walk – just click here to display the printable version. Ordnance Survey maps Explorer 27 (Lower Wharfedale – Washburn Valley, 2½" to 1 mile) for good detail of paths, and Landranger 104 (Leeds, Bradford – Harrogate Area, 1¼" to 1 mile) for general landmarks etc., are recommended in addition. We hope this walk will encourage you to explore the extensive network of footpaths around our village. A SUGGESTED LOCAL RAMBLE – by Colin Newton A varied circular walk rising 100m and passing through Stead Hall Farm, with excellent views of the Wharfe Valley, of Langbar, Denton, Askwith and Burley Moors, and of the Chevin. Parking: On the street at Hall Drive/Sun Lane. It may be possible to park at the Burley in Wharfedale Community Trust sports pavilion at Scalebor. However this must be avoided when the sports pitch and pavilion are in use as space is very limited at these times. Caution 1. The route crosses the railway line at a gated but unmanned crossing. Up to eight trains an hour pass and although they hoot on approach they do appear very quickly, particularly out of the bend from the Burley direction. Definitely a case for ‘Stop. Look and Listen’. Caution 2. There are very noisy dogs tethered at Stead Hall Farm.
